Day 100: New Beginnings

Today on the verge of spring I am dealing with more new beginnings than the emerging seedlings in my veggie patch. Yesterday had more turns than I expected.

I have been going through a serious pruning stage in life these past 100 days. Trying to figure out who I want to be and how to become that person. Painfully cutting away all the dead and overgrown characteristics and non fruit bearing twigs. Very little of who I used to be remained. But I am happy and very grateful that I have progressed. Now with spring approaching I cant wait to see myself mid-summer. And I am calm. Resolved.

Yesterday my husband was retrenched - and yes I know I promised not to write about him, but I'm an Alkie, we lie....:-)
So another new beginning awaits us. Somehow it feels right. It feels proper for all this to happen now. The atmosphere in my house is now suddenly less stressed, even though you would think we should stress. Everything is now a new possibility. And that fills me with excitement. So for those of you who do - please pray for my husband. This might be the most profound time of his life.

And as for me, I am still sober.
